I use FF ocean forrest and their three main nutes, but only in very light amounts.

The fan leaves also have some white discoloring on the ends.

I don't have a ph tester, so I don't really know if I'm too low or not.

Any help?

Seriously, you need a ph test kit...i'm SURE your levels are all over the place. Honestly, I'm surprised they have lasted thus far. :) They are sick as you can see but can be saved with the right ph balance and TLC!

Oh I'm sure they're still fairly healthy, since growth is occuring vigoriously.

What treatment do ppl use to adjust ph once they know the level...if its too low, whats the cure..if its too high, whats the fix?

If u dont have a hydro shop nearby u can buy PH up and down kits with a Tester in the Pet shop as they r used widely in fish tanks.
I would say ur PH is definately out tho.. Looks like u are getting a lock-out of micro nutrients.
White Spots is a sign of Zinc deficiency. Try burying Galvanised Nails in the soil.
The lower leaves can often yellow and die-off but nothing like what is occuring with u.
Hope this helps :joint:

So, before I can address the possible zinc problem, ph has to be fixed first, correct?

Fixing the PH problem may fix the zinc problem. PH makes alot of difference. Different Nutrients become available at different PH ranges.
